​" I value working with our customers and helping them find solutions throughout their supply chain, living in our customers' world.

Why Smurfit Kappa?

I wanted to be part of a global organization that still has so much potential for growth and expansion. Even though our global footprint is large, America is still a challenge that awaits. Knowing that Smurfit Kappa’s plan is to keep growing, I saw great opportunities and wanted to contribute to that growth.
